The Neumann House Bed & Breakfast wishes to thank you for your business. As of July 6, 2016, our business is suspended until our innkeeper, Luanne Neumann returns from missionary work in Slovakia, European Union. She will be teaching religion and English in a Lutheran high school, so will be gone at least one academic year.

Welcome to the Neumann House Bed and Breakfast

Located in the the charming Prairie du Chien area, Wisconsin's second oldest community, the Neumann House Bed and Breakfast dates from the Civil War era giving it the ambiance that only time can lend. We'd be delighted to be your starting point for exploring the area's many attractions.

Whenever you chose to visit, you'll find the picturesque area of Prairie du Chien makes a photographer's paradise. Visit during the spring and experience apple blossoms in neighboring orchards. During the autumn, you'll be surrounded by the rich tapestry of color produced by the season's harvest.

We're also conveniently located close to hiking, biking, cross-country skiing and snowmobile trails; you're sure to find your favorite activity readily accessible. The downtown area makes for a great place to explore on foot, wandering through the various shops and maybe eating at one of the unique local restaurants. Visitors will also want to take time to see the nearby newly-restored Victorian country estate, Villa Louis.

THE NEUMANN HOUSE KITTIES

The kitties at Neumann House are part of our identity. It just wouldn't be Neumann House without our beloved kitties.

Lucky is the newest of our house kitties. Good friends John and Vickie spied her while launching their pontoon boat at the Wisconsin River landing. At the end of the day they could hear her in their SUV while taking the pontoon out of the river. Efforts to rid her from the vehicle were unsuccessful, so she caught a ride into town in the engine compartment, thus her moniker—Lucky. She has turned into a cute and friendly little girl.

Momma was one of our original garden kitties. She gave birth to her one and only litter in our garage (2 males, 1 female) and the neighborhood had the joy of watching the cat family raise those kittens. Later that summer her daughter was adopted and the papa cat was hit by a car. Momma has live in our garden for over 15 years with her sons, but they have now both passed after keeping away alley cat intruders all those years. So Momma has come inside, unless it’s a balmy spring or autumn afternoon.

Fraidy is the new keeper of the garden. Much like Momma before her, she appeared on the scene, and shortly thereafter we noticed her pregnancy. (Somewhere on my garage there must be a sign that says “Feline Maternity Hospital.”) Homes were found quickly for all four of her kittens, but she too is missing the company of Momma’s sons Blackie and Bobbie. Fraidy is very shy, so be sure to greet her, but don’t try to pick her up.
